I have an ASUS EeePC 701 (with 2GB of RAM and an 8 GB card), on

which I've installed CentOS on the hard-drive-plus-card. But it can't even use my eth0.

Some one on a local LUG, where I had mentioned that other OSs did fine with all the same exact hardware, suggested that CentOS, being designed for stability rather than the bleeding edge, likely lacks drivers; so I need to get some.

Anybody know what drivers (for wireless as well as ethernet cable) I need, and how/where to get ones to fit CentOS??

I'm sure it's possible, but unless you plan not to use X, you won't have that much space left to work with! And CentOS needs a bit of RAM to perform well anyway.
